I'm planning to buy a VF Edge 540 (66').
I need an engine that can pull it out of a hover with authority and some power to spare.
Some have recommended a YS-110FZ.
Some say the YS-110 will hover it and pull out, but not with alot of thrust (sluggishly).
I'm thinking of the YS-140 Sport, but I'm wondering if it's too much weight.
I've also considered Saito, OS, and possibly Gasoline.
Though I think the weight for the Gasoline would really be pushing it.
What engine would you put on this plane to hover and pull?
